    HAs anyone construction drawing links for DPC around steel lintels. Having a shed built and theres dpc on top of steel beam(double skin of beams) but theres no mortar between the dpc and lintel. The DPC rests on top of the steel beam, mortar then blockwork. Wanting to know i the block layer has installed the dpc correctly.

    It should be a stepped dpc e.g.
    Inside leaf beam. Mortar .block course .mortar. dpc.mortar .block work
    outside leaf beam mortar.dpc.mortar .blockwork
